Yeah it HAS been “ rigged ” for a long time in favor of white, male, conservative … you name it … YEAH it’s fucking HARD out here …

But where do militant “tribal” attacks get us?

The point is that culture and art are both #subjective and ALSO… #universal…

When #art and #artists are attacked for political or tribal purpose …

Well…

That… Is an attack on all art and every artist …

If the #energy we expend discussing the easy stuff is used toward actually #VOTING which is also quite easy … and living our lives in a #Democratic #Progressive and #EarthFriendly way … then … we would be supporting the Human Tribe on our #BluePlanet .

When #art and #artists are attacked for political or tribal purpose …

Then we are down an even more slippery slope …

I advocate that we stop labelling each other in that twitter happy 140 character slam dunk that our followers fist bump so fast, without knowing the context.

#Context MATTERS.

#ContextMATTERS

I advocate that in this extremely difficult time in history and #herstory … we speak up respectfully, forcefully, even angrily

but that we ALSO #LISTEN and think, and feel, not only for ourselves, but for each other.
